Estadi Manuel Martinez Valero

The Estadio Martinez Valero is a stadium located in the Spanish city of Elx in the province of Alicante, Valencian Community. It is the home stadium of Elche CF, a team that is currently playing in LaLiga. Its name pays tribute to the late president of the club, Manuel Martinez Valero. It hosted the largest rout in the finals of a World Cup and hosted the final of the Copa del Rey in 2003. The Spanish football team has played several friendly matches and competitive qualifiers there. The stadium has the largest field dimensions in Europe.

With a capacity of 33,732 seats, Martinez Valero is the 12th-largest stadium in Spain and the 2nd-largest in the Valencian community.

History

The Martinez Valero Stadium was inaugurated on 8 September 1976, replacing the former Campo de Altabix, which was constructed in 1923. It was designed by the architect Juan Boix Matarredona, and is currently the largest sports arena in the province of Alicante. The inaugural match was Elche CF v. the Mexico National Team, which ended in a 3-3 tie.
